@@sewercotr3243 Sadly he's not. They cast Mahershala Ali as Blade. But, it would he a major missed opportunity if he didn't at least cameo. Or with the multiverse going on, show Wesley Snipes as a version of Blade in an alternate universe from that of the MCU.
Morbius might've disappeared from comics halfway through the 90's, but he was in the animated Spider-Man series, where his origin was changed a bit: He still was trying to cure his disease with the use of bats, but it was ultimately Spider-Man's radioactive blood combined with bat-blood that caused his transformation. He also didn't bite his victims, but had (sort of) suction caps on the palms of his hands he used to "suck plasma*" through their skin. *: My guess is the show named it 'plasma' instead of 'blood' to make it more kid-friendly.
Plasma is the fluid our blood cells use to move through our bodies, so they were still accurate to the blood sucking nature, just without the blood cells
Ya I remember watching that cartoon as a kid and even back then going "...wait he's a vampire that sucks plasma not blood...through his hands??? This is stupid".
Leto looks like a terrible version of Morbius. When I watch the 90's version I see Morbius, when I look at Leto I see terrible casting. I hate to say it but Leto was a better choice for Joker then he was for Morbius.

This guy really made a highly successful RUclips channel based on gargantuan levels of knowledge about comic stories and sharing that with people in a concise manner. Truly something to be appreciated.
@@morbiuscrystal4875 add Moon Knight and I’m sold!! And cast Keanu as Ghost Rider and that cast would be absolutely incredible!! But now I’m gonna be thinking about who could play Man-Thing all night!! Most important trait(other than acting talent) for him would be his voice!! Cause CGI would cover the visual side of things!!
First time I saw or heard of Morbius was on the Spider-Man TAS. I thought he was pretty interesting character there. I picked up some of his Midnight Sun run comics after that.
One specific thing that cemented Morbius in my mind was in his most recent run by Vita Ayala. He had a short dialogue with himself about ancient Greek philosophers and their ideas of ethics as well as mankind's roll as a species. How Aristotle stated that Mankind's function was to be rational, that people were succeeding in their own humanity if they acted from reason. That how the greatest good, the greatest virtue, was something that was that was self-sustaining, something that people would want for it's own sake and not for something abstract like approval from others, or anything that is really done because you want something else. Morbius concluded that good health was that self-sustaining virtue or at least one of them. I really pondered on that and I couldn't help but agree. Good health is simply a question of balance and balance in anything is the highest possible virtue a person could ask for. I wouldn't have learned that if I didn't pick up this comic. From that point on I couldn't help but have an appreciation for the tragic man of reason and intellect that is Michael Morbius.
@@mnsega okay. I’m guessing you’re a fan of Wolverine, right? Who isn’t? So I’ll direct that question right back at you, so are YOU Canadian cause you like Wolverine? So WHY THE HELL do I have to be Canadian because I like Alpha Flight? I’m from Brooklyn,NY if you must know, so no, I’m not Canadian.😂
You have taught me pretty much *ALL* of what I know about comics. Before finding you, my knowledge was strictly from series 1 & 2 Marvel collectible cards from early 90s; reruns of the Hulk tv show on scifi channel; the animated X-Men, Batman, and Spider-Man series from 90s; and then just any movie with comic characters, from Christopher Reeves as Superman and Michael Keaton as Batman all the way up through current day Marvel Studios' MCU and such. In all that time, I have only actually read two comics/graphic novels: Death of Superman and Old Man Logan. For literally everything else, you have been the reader, the watcher, the story-teller. And I can't thank you enough. You make the world of comics and geek culture a better place. Thanks, Rob.
Sounds like you're in a rush! I'm used to your more layed back(yet excited) way of telling the story. You jumped right into it; no small talk at all. Still good brief video.
I wonder if Marvel is setting up Midnight Sons with Dr. Srange, Blade, Morbius, Moon Knight and Bloodstone. I could see the MCU combining ARMOR and Midnight Sons, basically the supernatural SHIELD.
Incorrect at least the Morbius part. Because his movie is not canon, and you can't argue with me that it is because it isn't. You know why it is because nothing without a Marvel Studios logo pasted up on top is canon that is a hard fact.
Rise Of The Midnight Sons was dope!!! I still have the poster. It came in 6 sections (one with each issue in the story) and the 6 sections made 1 cool looking poster...
What if Ra's al Ghul got the Ten Rings What if Doctor Strange got the Helmet of Fate What if Darkseid got the Cosmic Cube What if Deadpool got the Mask What if Darkseid fought The Avengers. What if Thanos got the Anti-Life Equation What if Shang-Chi was the Iron Fist What if Superman landed in Asguard What if the Batman Who Laughs invaded the Marvel Universe
As a MCU watcher that doesn't (and has never) read comics. I really want Morbius, Blade, and whoever else there is that would make sense (Scarlet Witch maybe?), forming a "Marvel Dark" spinoff, where they face the eldritch monsters, since I don't think those enemies fit in the "daytime" MCU.
Some of the coolest Vampire "drawings" or Comic art, imo, are the Morbius interpretations. I LOVED how he was written in Maximum Carnage! Hoping the movie is at least Good
I loved the Morbius from Spiderman the Animated Series. They couldn't have a blood thirsty vampire on a kids show so they had to make him hunger for plasma.
The Midnight Sons was what got me into comics. I was huge fan of all of those comics, and never knew Morbius was even a Spiderman villain before. I've been longing for a decent Ghost Rider movie, though the AoS version was damn good.
I think a Blade/Morbius team up could be cool in the MCU if the movies are good. Also the idea of Peter Parker going to the Lizard for help with his arm problem is just hysterical to me
you know what i just realized ? the movie Justice league: Gods and Monsters got their idea of how their batman , A.K.A Man-Bat , became the way he was from Morbius's story .
With this Multiverse shenanigans, I wanna see Morbius meet Mobius M. Mobius from TVA. Man I hope people don't connect the bat thing to COVID. Surprised they didn't alter the script. Wait, people don't like Midnight Sons??? Crazy man, my favorite team!
I hope it does well, and people support. Even though Jared Leno is a bit weird, he is a extremely devoted and good actor. He will do this character justice.
Midnight Sons and Spirits of Vengeance got me Hooked on Ghost Rider. I believe the only legitimate redemption for him will be to introduce Danny Ketch.
I had read most everything from 101 up till about mid 1980's. I find myself wanting all the Curtis B&W magazines , they were adult R rated magazines with awesome content.
No, you're not the only one. I LOVED THE MIDNIGHT SONS COMICS! I was reading Nightstalkers, Spirits of Vengeance, and Darkhold during their runs. And I'm super excited about the Midnight Suns game, based on the Midnight Sons storyline and made by the Firaxis X-com team (which was delayed until the second half of 2022 today).
I can see Morbius popping up in the Dr.Strange sequel if Nightmare is somehow involved or in a future Dr.Strange movie. Morbius’ movie would be a good way to work the character of Johnny Blaze in the mix to.
I have a soft spot for Morbius. Like the adult version of me was like "Oh hey, they're going to make a Morbius movie." The kid in me was like "Oh my god! It's Morbius!"
Been a sub when you had I think 100 thousand subs and now you on 2 mill plus wow congratulations! You deserve it I am a huge fan and I’m definitely a lot better with my comic history cause of you rob thank you sir
I really wanted the movie to be good, but now I'm afraid that from now on, Morbius will be treated like a joke. Anytime Morbius will appear in something now, people are gonna be like, "iT's MoRbIn TiMe lOl fUnNy VaMpIrE gUy HuRr DuRr."
Now that the internet meme the movie with a sequel, i wonder how that will play out. Will they keep the consistent "serious" tone or will they go full deadpool and just go full on shitposting ?
One of my favorite short stories was in the 90s where morbius had deteriorated quite a bit and had his edgy belts and rags appearance. He bites Spider-Man in the initial issue. Spider-Man deals with that for a bit and then after an artist change it picks back up. Edit: found it. Peter Parker Spider-Man 77 and 78
During the Blip would have been the perfect time to drop Blade and Mobius Movies. Sole reason being that most of the Vampires food source was gone. Woulda been nice
I mean, they can definitely still make movies that take place during that time-frame to introduce certain characters/concepts. Obviously we know Morbius doesn't take place then, but ya never know with Blade. I agree, it's a great idea.
Love your Videos! I started with reading Comics because of your channel and for my first series to own, i chose Jonathan Hickman's East of West and oh man, this Story is sooo cool
I recently crafted a tentative theory about Morbius Rob that I would LOVE to know if you think is actually possible. Since the Eternals post credit scene revealed Dane Whitman getting the Ebony Blade, along with BLADE himself with the voice over, I've been wondering if Morbius could be setting up Vampires within the MCU for the eventual introduction of Blade. The way I think it could work, is that when Morbius kills these people on that shipping freighter, one or more of them may be transformed into Vampires which will of course be the perfect way of getting Blade inside the MCU.
In the late 80s and early 90s, I collected Marvel's dossier comics. At the time, Morbius was one of the "deceased" ones... in the same issue as the "deceased" Mantis. There has been at least one reboot since then. I mean, Wolverine's claws... razor-thin and supersharp, in those, were bionic... implanted just after his skeleton was coated. The bone claws as part of his mutation were added in the 90s as a post-script. You went back decades, even guys who never die and never get rebooted get modified, even to a reboot level.
Sony’s SPIDERVERSE is starting to look SPECTACULAR. I have a feeling MORBIUS will be that movie that catches everyone off guard & turns in AMAZING box office returns

I would be more interesting if those he feed on didnt turn into vampires but were ppl he dominated that looked and acted like themselves, that fulfill morbius commands and had all the strengths of a vampire but no weakness to sunlight.
So excited for this! Scarlet Witch is my favorite but I love cosplaying a vampiric version of her and I LOVE Morbius. He and Marvel's Dracula are just beyond awesome and super powerful. Probably two of the coolest and most powerful vamps in comic fiction. 🥰🧛♂️🥰
